From breakups to illness to run-ins with the law, check out our photo gallery of stars' not-so-joyful Christmas seasons.

katy is so immature. Did you see where she dived under a table when she was out with john. to try and hide when Russel walked in the same place. This is the mentality of a Jr High School girl. She's stuck in Jr High and doesn't know how to grow up. How sad she really is.

Holy cow brand, close that mouth, the gums are making me want to heave. No wonder Katy left you, wash your hair too while you're at it.

She picked him. Which doesn't make her either smart or sane. And supposedly he's been with hundreds of women which just goes to show what gold diggers and fame ****** most people are. If Brand wasn't famous, and only God knows why or what for, he'd have to pay for people to have sex with him.

'Heartbreak' would be victims that lost homes and belongings in the fires in the spring in Colorado, Hurricane Sandy just recently, the girl that lost limbs from the flesh eating virus after falling into the river.....etc....etc...Certainly not so called 'stars' that regroup quickly and move onto other relationships without grieving. Most everyone has had a bad relationship....nothing special or newsworthy.

They don't know what a "bad Christmas" is. Try worrying over no food in the house, can't keep bills paid, and no gifts for your kids under the tree...then you will know what a "bad Christmas" is. Brand looks horrible. What was SHE thinking?
